This event is an introduction to some of the techniques in Bayesian econometrics which can be useful for modelling and forecasting in central banks. It will provide an overview of the theory and then focus on practical implementation through computer-based exercises. The seminar will be taught...

In this seminar we offer central bankers with expertise in this field the opportunity to share and deepen their knowledge of the current challenges to many aspects of macroprudential policy. Topics: - the appropriate objective(s) for macroprudential policy and the various challenges to...

The event will cover both theoretical and empirical analyses of the functioning of the IMS. Topics: - the interplay between domestic policy frameworks and the IMS; - the ‘rules of the game’ and the trade-off between interventions by supranational authorities and market-based adjustments; -...

The financial crisis revealed that even a well-capitalised bank can find itself in difficulty if it does not manage its liquidity properly. Consequently, recent years have seen a great deal of theoretical and empirical research into the links between financial firm liquidity and overall...

This seminar is aimed at central bankers actively involved in developing or evaluating systemic risk assessment models, or central bankers who use systemic risk models as an input into their tasks and wish to acquire a deeper understanding of how they work. Participants should be familiar with...

This workshop provides a forum for central bank experts to share their experiences and debate the issues. The following key topics are likely to be covered: - strategic considerations in external communications; - policymaking in the media spotlight: lessons learned from the crisis; - exploiting...

Topics: - the econometric modelling and forecasting of inflation and growth in central banks; - mechanical, statistical, semi-structural and structural inflation forecasting models; - using a ‘suite’ of statistical and theoretical forecasting models; - tools for forecast evaluation and...

This event aims to help participants use dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models to analyse monetary policy choices. Participants will learn methods needed to solve, estimate and analyse general equilibrium models under different assumptions about monetary policy and take part in practical...

This forum provides an opportunity for senior practitioners to work with others in the field on strategic issues affecting the supply and demand for banknotes. The event will focus on two or three topical issues — that have a longer-term horizon — bringing together relevant experts from a...
